أجريت التجارب الخاصة بهذه الدراسة في منطقتين من غوطة دمشق الأولى في منطقة أبي جرش - مزرعة كلية الزراعة والثاني في منطقة خرابو - مزرعة كلية الزراعة
An available free groundwater were classified
hydrochemical, and determined its fitting for general uses in a part
of Damascus's Ghouta, which suffers water deficiency, where the
study carried out on groundwater samples taken from 20 wells
distri
buted on all study area, the results show that groundwater
classified hydrochemical as calcic water and non potable, and
unsuitable for domestic consumption in broad part from study area,
but arable and recommend to use in irrigation plants that have weak
resistant to salinity, and not preferable to use in industry generally,
but it's good for building and concrete works.
This investigation was carried out during 2011–2012 season at the
biotechnology department\General Commission for Scientific Agricultural
Researches in order to detect the presence of Giardia Cysts on fresh vegetables
and irrigation water using PC
R technique to detect the status of Giardia cysts
in ten different agricultural areas of Damascus Countryside. 120 samples
including, 40 irrigation water and 80 vegetables samples were randomly
collected and tested. Out of 120 samples examined, only 25.8 % were
contaminated with Giardia cysts and these included 37.5% of irrigation water
samples and 20% of fresh vegetables samples. G. lamblia cysts were detected in
12.5% of examined samples, 17.5% of irrigation water samples and 10% of
fresh vegetables samples. The majority of contaminated samples (41.6%),
(25%) for Giardia and G. lamblia, respectively were from Misraba area without
statistically significant with Kafrein area, which showed the lowest
contamination with Giardia cysts (8.33%) and was free of G. lamblia cysts. This
study confirmed the importance of application of molecular biology methods in
the detection of Giardia on vegetables and their Irrigation water, since used
primers showed high specificity and sensitivity in the detection of the Giardia
genus and discriminate the Human pathogenic type, G. lamblia.
٤٨ genotypes of Juglans regia L. were Studies in Damascus Gutta. They
were divided to three groups A,B, and C. Three genotypes were selected from
there groups. The selection were on genotype B٤, The percentage of kernel in
these genotypes Contain
the Highest percentage ٦٣,٨٧٪. The qualities of the
genotypes were fruits ٥,١٩ length, and ٤,٦ cm width.
Fifty clones of local seeded apricot (Klabi). Prunus armeniaca L. were
classified AL-Goutta orchard during ١٩٩٦–٢٠٠٠ . These clones were analyzed
in terms of physical and chemical characteristics with the objective of selecting
individual clones (
For dried apricot sheets) that meet the standard
specifications.
